Sabres Rumors

The Buffalo Sabres have flexibility in the draft. The Sabres have four picks in the first two rounds. The Sabres have still been talking to teams in the top 5 about moving up. It will be tough. Getting into the top 5 will cost Darcy an arm and a leg. The Sabres have rumors of maybe trading the 8th pick and either Andrej Sekera or Tyler Myers for the 5th pick. Thomas Vanek and Ryan Miller stay on the roster for now. Both could be traded this week. For now the Buffalo Sabres are quiet but could make some noise later today and later this week.

Twas the Night Before Christmas(Well, Sorta)

Well folks... We got one day left and we've yet to see a ground shaking trade... Here's some quick hits to get you  all hyped!

*NYR and Carolina are still discussing Staal & Skinner, but Carolina wants MDZ as well. 

*Edmonton and Philly are close on a deal that would send Coburn to the Oil for Paajarvi and two 2nd's OR Coburn and the 11 for Paajarvi and the 7

*Toronto has been working the phones a lot today. If they were to acquire a center, Grabo would be bought out and Bozak would be kept. 

*Boston would trade Seguin but only for a "kings ransom"

*NYR have been shopping JT Miller for proven talent and have been fielding calls on MDZ

*Colorado has stated they will take Mackinnon but this still screams smoke screen. Ill believe it when I see it but for now I still say Jones.

That's all for now, but stay tuned to twitter for the latest!

Carolina Shopping Skinner and the 5th OVR Pick

Hi all! I've been informed that Carolina has been shopping Skinner or the 5th OVR pick for a top 4 defenseman. The NY Rangers and Toronto have been discussing a trade with Carolina. Michael Del Zotto and Marc Staal are names discussed in a NYR-CAR deal. Dion Phaneuf and Jake Gardiner are names that Carolina wants but GM Dave Nonis will not part with Gardiner in this particular deal. Before NYR fans start to rip on me for saying Staal, ask yourselves this... The Rangers need a young top line forward, and with Staal's vision up in the air, why not take the chance to get a guy like Jeff Skinner who gives the NYR the speed and athleticism that can boost the NYR farther into the playoffs. And to the Leafs fans... Hey, your trading Dion :)
